Directory:András Gregorik

András Gregorik (born 1976) is a Hungarian novelist and screenwriter. His main themes include, both in fiction and non-fiction, the social and/or emotional isolation of highly sensitive individuals due to mental disorders, misfortune, poverty or simply being different, and their ensuing redemption through a spiritual journey of either a Christian or psychological kind.

Career

From early 2006, Gregorik turned to full time writing. He wrote two screenplays (Basic fault, Pseudolife) and his first novel (also titled Basic fault) in quick succession. Two of his short stories were shortlisted in a literary competition by a Hungarian foundation (2008). A feature film based on his Basic fault is in pre-production stage (2008).

Themes

Gregorik's first three novels each feature a main character that is cut off society for reasons outside his or her influence.
